This project aims to enhance our understanding of Earth's impact craters by accurately dating them using advanced techniques on zircon minerals. It focuses on craters that may have significant implications for geological events, such as mass extinctions, and seeks to build a comprehensive database for future research.
The role of impact cratering in the evolution of Earth’s geosphere and biosphere is greatly underappreciated in the field of modern geoscience.
Although years of research on terrestrial impact craters have contributed greatly to our knowledge of impact cratering processes and products, the available geochronological data represents a major and fundamental gap in our knowledge.
Of the ca. 190 confirmed impact craters on Earth only ca. 10 % are considered to be accurately and precisely dated.
